We are proud to have launched our alumni support program to continue to support and stay connected to our Prospectors after their high school graduation. Providing support to our alumni has long been a goal of ours at Prospect, and we are so proud of some big strides forward in this direction during the 23-24 school year. As we continue to implement programs and resources, we will connect with our alumni for feedback and monitor outcomes to ensure we are meeting the needs of our diverse student community.
College & Career Advising
Our college track alumni have been paired with “near-peer” College Success Advisors that offer guidance for academic planning, financial aid and socio-emotional health. Career and Technical Education (CTE) track alumni have been connected with a Career Advisor who supports them in completing career interest assessments and gaining admission to CTE programs. The response from this pilot cohort has been very positive thus far and we look forward to selecting a second cohort of 30-40 students from the Class of 2024!
Alumni Programming
In addition to this in-depth support for a cohort of alumni, we have also built efforts to create community and provide support to all alumni. We are planning 2 alumni-focused community events this year to help keep our graduates connected to Prospect Schools.
KIPP Forward Partnership Pilot
Through partnership with KIPP Forward, we are now providing direct Career and Technical Education (CTE) support to a cohort of 35 graduates from the Class of 2023.
